Like many of the other herbal tisanes fruit melange teas gained popularity in Europe during the war due to shortages of true teas. Most fruit melanges use apples, hibiscus flowers and currents as a base. The rest is up to the creativity of the blenders to come up with some of the funkiest and most innovative flavours of teas. All rules are off and blenders will add anything from flowers to popcorn to make their creations sensational.

Perfect as iced teas as they won’t get bitter with excessive infusion time. A popular choice and a favourite with those with a sweet palate, they are a fat free, healthy treat.
